The department is actually physically changing,

so it no longer looks like the A&E that I'm used to.

They partitioned off the A&E so that there's now

what we call a corona area and a non-corona area,

to try and keep contamination at a minimum.

We see that poses some significant challenges

in itself, as A&Es fundamentally aren't...

There are lots of staff who work in very different ways,

either remotely or we've had to tell people

they can't be at work because either they're at risk

They can be at home, and for lots of staff

that's really upsetting because they want to be helping,

And not being there, there've been a lot of tears,

Our main focus was so far more on mental health,

and now we have to focus a bit more on physical health

as we are not really equipped for this level of care.

that is on ventilation, on life support, as well.

And when you hear stories amongst colleagues

In terms of the stress levels, they're extremely high.

The first thing you think about when you wake up

on me, on my colleagues, whether we will be as resilient as we

are now, and whether we will have enough staff actually

Now so my... now I go home in the evening and I think about

the patients I've spoken to and the decisions that I've made

In two weeks' time I fear that the burden on me

It'd be about the decisions that I've made to say to people,

actually I'm afraid you can't go to hospital

It's just a case of... we just don't have the equipment

You've been, unfortunately, there's nothing more we can do.

So, there's going to be some pretty difficult situations,

I feel that the worst is yet to come, unfortunately.

The best way for me is to admit that I am only

a human being, so all this anxiety, frustrations,

I cannot escape or pretend or deny that they are not there.

What I can do is to be aware that they are and do

and I'm a GP, and as different as we are in the work,

I think we're different in personality as well.

So I'm a pretty brainless optimist, generally.

A lot of doctors don't live with other doctors

And anything that's particularly affected us during the day

or during the shift, we can discuss with each other

and try and reassure each other and calm each other down.

There are patients that are dying, and I guess it helps...

it is helpful being able to discuss that with each other.

which a lot of doctors and healthcare workers

We try and do normal things as much as possible, actually.

you're been on your phone a lot, and it can be all-consuming,

basically, but having just that sense of normality,

things that are reassuring at these times

And that's how we're trying to manage things.

We're getting food, random food deliveries

to the A&E department from the local food suppliers.

We're getting lots of nice messages and lots of support

My phone is probably the busiest it's ever

been with just general messages from my friends saying,
